| Abstract | Measurement of vegetation drought stress or leaf density is essential in ecosystem and agronomic studies. The normalized differential vegetation index (NDVI), a widely used vegetation index in remote sensing, seems to have some limitations as it is known to be affected by both drought stress and leaf density. A field experiment was conducted, using two-year-old potted Quercus serrata (a deciduous tree) and Q. glauca (an evergreen tree), to determine the optimal indices of vegetation drought stress or leaf density that have the least a simultaneous effect, and to test if the existing vegetation indices are useful for independently detecting drought stress or leaf density. The results showed that NDVI and similar indices, which utilize the difference or ratio between the reflectance of red and near infrared bands, such as the ratio vegetation index (RVI), the difference vegetation index (DVI), the atmospherically resistant vegetation index (ARVI), the renormalized difference vegetation index (RDVI), the enhanced vegetation index (EVI), the perpendicular vegetation index (PVI), soil-adjusted vegetation index (SAVI) and the improved variants of SAVI, were effective for the independent detection of leaf density but relatively ineffective for drought stress because they were significantly affected by leaf area index (LAI). Similarly, vegetation indices developed as detectors of vegetation stress, such as the water index (WI), the stress index (SI) and the derivative chlorophyll index (DCI), showed weak correlation (r) and partial correlation (r $_{p}$) with leaf water content (LWC). The optimal hyperspectral indices were proposed as (F $_{502.8}$ − F $_{852.0}$)/(F $_{502.8}$ + F $_{852.0}$) for LWC (r = 0.847, r $_{p}$ = 0.849) and R $_{750}$/R $_{550}$ (R750R550; Lichtenthaler et al. in J Plant Physiol 148:483–493, 1996) for LAI (r = 0.926, r $_{p}$ = 0.940) where R $_{ λ }$ and F $_{ λ }$ represent reflectance and first derivatives at wavelength λ nm, respectively. A simulation of lower spectral sampling intervals (ca. 3-nm intervals of original to 10-nm intervals) indicated that it will be necessary to check the appropriateness of the derivative indices approximate to the proposed indices before application because derivative spectra are less smooth as a function of wavelength than reflectance spectra. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
